Before anyone could react, she threw all the photos on the table.

The photos were scattered, and it was a picture of Jiang Yining and Xiao Lang.

The photo of them at the auction house looked like both of them were kissing each other.

“Jiang Yining, you shameless gold digger. You married our All Zhi, yet you’re still going out to hook up with other men? Do you have any sense of shame?”

When Lu Zhi saw the photo, he knew who had given it to her. He stood up and said coldly, “Grandma, 1 know about Yining and Xiao Lang meeting each other. The two of them didn’t do anything out of line. Please stop humiliating Yining.” “Heh, you knew about it?” Old Madam Lu obviously didn’t believe him. She said, “If you knew, why didn’t you meet each other when you entered the same auction house?” Old Madam Lu picked up the photo that seemed to be a kiss and questioned sternly, “You saw this scene with your own eyes. Do you still believe that she is innocent?”

“Yes, I believe.” Lu Zhi emphasized, “No matter who says that she is not innocent, I will still believe Yining. So, please stop.”

The last sentence was a warning.

However, it was precisely because of Lu Zhi’s protection that Old Madam Lu loathed Jiang Yining even more.

She glanced at Jiang Yining and then at Shen Man, and then implicitly scolded Shen Man, “The older one is crooked and that’s why the younger one is crooked as well. It’s because of a woman like you that the Lu family’s atmosphere is ruined! Our Tan Shu found a woman like you, and Ah Zhi married someone with the same indecent behavior! Retribution, it really is retribution! Our Lu family must have had eight lifetimes of bad luck to have you women marry into the family!”

Shen Man’s face turned pale.

The hands hanging by her sides also clenched into fists.

Jiang Yining could clearly feel that Shen Man, who was sitting beside her, was trying her best to hold back.

She frowned.

No matter what Shen Man had done wrong, she should not have humiliated her in front of Lu Zhi, right?

After all, she was Ah Zhi’s biological mother and had given him life!

She should at least be given some respect!

“Shut up.” Old Master Lu roared.

Old Madam Lu gritted her teeth and said, “Don’t think that you can act unscrupulously just because All Zhi is protecting you. Remember, you’re the Young Mistress of the Lu family. Behave yourself! If I catch you having an affair in your marriage, 1 won’t let you off!”

“Are you done?”

Old Master Lu grabbed her wrist.

Old Madam Lu shook him off and shrieked, “What does it have to do with you?!”

After saying that, she turned around to leave.

Jiang Yining stood up and blocked her way. She said, “Grandma, I’ll endure it if you say so. But why are you scolding my mother? She’s the daughter-in-law of the Lu family, not some animal that you can casually insult.”

“Your mother? Who is your mother?” Old Lady Lu knew that Lu Zhi would not protect Shen Man, so she pointed at Shen Man and scolded her without any restraint, “Ask her if a woman like her is worthy of being called All Zhi’s mother.”

Shen Man stood up and held Jiang Yining’s hand.

She signaled her not to get into a conflict with the old lady.

However, Jiang Yining stood straight and did not show any intention of giving in.

“Whether or not she is worthy is not up to you to decide, but for Ah Zhi to decide!” Jiang Yining didn’t believe that Lu Zhi had any feelings for Shen Man at all and would allow Old Madam Lu to humiliate his mother like this.

She looked up at Lu Zhi and said in a clear voice, “Lu Zhi, if you still acknowledge her as your mother, call her ‘Mom’ in front of everyone. If you think she’s not worthy of being your mother, then say sorry. I won’t stop this kind of situation in the future anymore.”

Lu Zhi’s eyebrows knitted together as he stared straight into Shen Man’s eyes.

Shen Man’s body trembled slightly, and her eyes reddened.

She froze for a moment.

She had already given up on herself before she heard Lu Zhi’s voice.

She felt that he would not stand on her side.

She lowered her head, intending to give in to the old lady.

But at this moment-

Lu Zhi said in a deep voice, “Grandma, she’s my mother. Please don’t point fingers at her in the future. All these years, she had already paid the price for her mistakes.”

Every word he said entered her ears clearly.

Shen Man felt like she was dreaming. Her tears blurred her vision, and everything around her quickly faded away.

Only her son was left.

He was finally willing to admit that she was his mother. At this moment, she was willing to die.

Shen Man pinched her palms so hard that she did not even notice her nails digging into her flesh.

Unknowingly… Tears streamed down her face.

Old Madam Lu looked at Lu Zhi in shock. Her hands trembled as she cried, “Good, alright. I’ve worked hard to raise you up, but you’ve repeatedly opposed me because of a woman. Now, you even acknowledged this sl*tty woman as your mother. You’re really my good grandson…”

Jiang Yining gave Lu Zhi a thumbs up in her heart.

Then, she walked to Shen Man’s side and hugged her arm. She comforted, “Mom, don’t cry.”

Shen Man grabbed onto Jiang Yining’s wrist tightly as if she was holding onto a life-saving straw. She said in a low voice that no one else could hear, “Thank you.”

Jiang Yining was stunned.

This was normal in other families.

However, to Shen Man, it was as difficult as crossing a natural moat…

Just as she was thinking, Old Madam Lu’s body suddenly went limp and she fainted.

Old Master Lu rushed forward and held her.

Lu Zhi subconsciously reached out his hand.

Jiang Yining came back to her senses and took a step forward to feel her pulse. She said, “She was a little agitated and fainted temporarily. She should be fine after taking some medicine to ease her mood.”

Lu Zhi nodded and carried Old Madam Lu.

He walked towards the bedroom and Old Master Lu followed suit.

Shen Man’s gaze followed them to the door of the living room. She lowered her eyes and walked up to Jiang Yining. She said, “I’m sorry for implicating you. In the future, you’d better not interfere in my matters.”

She could tell that her son really liked Jiang Yining.

However, her son was raised by the old lady and had deep affection for her.

For Yining’s sake, Ah Zhi went against the old lady.

He was already under a lot of pressure.

If Yining and Ah Zhi were to fall out because of her, she would feel uneasy.

Seeing that Shen Man was about to leave, Jiang Yining pulled her back and said, “I’ve already completely offended the old lady. I’m not afraid of her hating me even more. Mom, you don’t have to worry about me.”

She kept calling her ‘Mom’, which touched Shen Man

However, for her own good, Shen Man’s face turned cold and she said, “Not only will you offend Old Madam, but you will also offend All Zhi. He doesn’t recognize me as his mother. He said that in front of everyone just now because he didn’t want you to be embarrassed. If you protect me, it will only destroy your relationship.”

Jiang Yining’s lips twitched.

She didn’t think that Lu Zhi would acknowledge someone he didn’t approve of as his mother just for her.

In her opinion…

Lu Zhi just couldn’t bring himself to reconcile with Shen Man

“Mom, there’s no overnight feud between mother and son. Besides, what does your mistake have to do with All Zhi? The grudges of the previous generation should not involve the next generation.”

After Jiang Yining entered the Lu family, she had heard a lot of news.

Among the rumors about Shen Man, the most common one was that she wanted to divorce Lu Zhi’s father after giving birth to Lu Beicheng.

At that time, it was a big deal. Shen Man was very determined to get a divorce and take one of the children with her.

However, for some unknown reason, the divorce did not happen.

She tried to elope with that man but was stopped by Old Madam Lu.

After that…

That man disappeared without a trace, and Shen Man continued to be the Young Mistress of the Lu family.

Looking at the whole thing, Jiang Yining didn’t think it was a big deal.

Wasn’t it just a couple breaking up and getting back together?

If they loved each other, they would stay together. If they didn’t love each other, they would separate. It was simple and clear.

Moreover, Shen Man did not take over the position of the Young Mistress of the Lu family and continued to flirt with other men.

She had brought up divorce a long time ago, but the Lu family refused to let her go-

Since they have decided to let her stay in the Lu family, they should let bygones be bygones.

However, Old Madam Lu kept her in the family while calling her a sl*t.

She even incited Lu Zhi to turn against Shen Man

This was too much.

Jiang Yining truly felt that the Elder Lu witch had played a huge role in deteriorating the relationship between Lu Zhi and Shen Man to its breaking point.

Jiang Yining’s heart was racing, but in reality, only two seconds had passed.

She looked up at the worried Shen Man and comforted her, “Mom, don’t worry. I’ll let Ah Zhi understand you.”

“Yining…” Shen Man had thousands of words on her tongue, but in the end, she only said, “Thank you. However, there’s really no need for you to do that.”

Jiang Yining had her own ideas and gave her a reassuring smile.

She didn’t say anything else..
